Al-Rahi Urges Sectarian Balance, Competence in Appointments
Maronite Patriarch Beshara al-Rahi on Sunday called on the government to respect the 1943 National Pact and equal Christian-Muslim power-sharing in the upcoming administrative and judicial appointments.
The patriarch also urged the appointment of “competent and upright” individuals and equal opportunities for “every competent citizen” from both sexes, without “the precondition of belonging to a political party.”

Never has Lebanon seen or known an FPM patriarch who is as talkative as this one, ever!
